Musketeer Gripweed Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Just watched Children of Men. Why are all films that are made these days set in the future so bleak with everyone in the world being the enemy of the good guy? Apart from Back To The Future II of course. Decent enough though I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluetooner Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Watched the following films recently:- Wicker Man (new one) - They watered down the whole sexual theme of the original, which made a lot of it not make any sense. was better than i originally thought it was going to be. I loved the fact they integrated Edward Woodward into the film the way they did 5/10 The Guardian - New Kevin Costner film with Ashton Kutcher. Coastguard theme, with the typical young stud gets trained by hero, goes through life changing moments with the Hero and in the end the end happened. Enjoyable enough film however. 6/10 Babel - Heard a lot of good things about it, equating it to Crash but was left dissapointed. It never had the storylines that Crash did, and im not a Brad Pitt fan. I also thought it jumped around storylines too quickly, and it was all disjointed time-wise (one storyline was way ahead of others etc). Should have been far far better. 4/10 The Wild - Typical Disney film, that has meshed storylines from other disney films together. 5/10. FlyBoys - WW1 film about Americans who came to fight with the French air force before the Americans joined the war. Acting was ok in it, some of the fight scenes were pretty good, but not the best. 6/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Man Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Just rented Borat, quite funny, and cringeworthy at times. Just watched it today. Hilarious viewing. The yanks are dumb as f**k. (so are Canadians) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Derailed:- Wouldnt have chosen to watch this but the girl recommended it and I thoroughly enjoyed it. 7/10 A night to remember:- Titanic movie made in 1958. 10 times better than the Hollywood version purely because there's no sign of Celine Dion. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uberman Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Dark city 4/10 one for the sci-fi geeks, not me. Fans of the matrix and such like would probably like dark city, I didn't i thought it was kack and I'll be telling that to the workmate who loaned me it when I go back on wednesday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estragon Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I watched a great film called Talk Radio on ITV2 last night. A tremendous thriller about a loudmouthed, Jewish radio phone-in host who incurs the wrath of local neo-nazis. Some fantastic scenes in this film, given the fact I'd never heard of it I was shocked by how good it was. A totally unexpected 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundermonkey Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I've watched a few, I'll be short and sweet: Casino Royale 7/10 - Encouraging, good to see another take on Bond (especially an inexperienced and reckless one), wasn't too convinced about the depth of the relationship. It did have some great set pieces though. Scary Movie 3 2/10 - Just plainly not funny. Not good for a comedy. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back 5/10 - Not as much of a mess as Dogma, 2 extra marks for Ali Larter and the Buffy burd in latex. The Astronaut's Wife - ??? Fell alseep, is there any other more definitive critique than that? Ferris Bueller's Day Off 8/10 - What can I say? Tremendous. It's got the laughs, the music, the human storyline, Oh Yeah by Yello and Ed Rooney "Oh, he's very popular Ed. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, waistoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uberman Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 The Big Lebowski -7/10 still funny. One of my favourite films, I bought it not that long ago. Surely it's worth more than a 7 though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluetooner Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 One of my favourite films, I bought it not that long ago. Surely it's worth more than a 7 though I think it only got a 7 because it is losing it's impact on mr Mcqueen or as you say, it surely deserves more than a 7 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Starko Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Watched "Saw 3". Was very good. It isn't the goryest of films but it's pretty cringeworthy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
